Tools of the trade
1. SUSANNE KAUFMANN FACE ROLLER
Susanne Kaufmann collaborated with her brother, architect Oskar Leo, to design this hand-carved face roller made from obsidian stone, which is believed to hold healing energies that can help with inflammation.
2. BEAUTY BLENDER
No makeup lover can ever have enough Beauty Blenders on hand—and the cute little eggshaped makeup sponges come in a wide variety of colours and sizes, which makes them the most versatile and useful stocking stuffer this Christmas.
3. GHD GLIDE HOT BRUSH
Indispensable in humid weather, the GHD Glide helps straighten locks and smooth frizz—making even second-day hair look sleek and “on-purpose.” Launched earlier this year, the hot brush immediately sold out worldwide and has only recently been restocked, just in time for the gifting season.
4. DYSON AIRWRAP
The innovative Dyson Airwrap curls, smoothes, waves, and dries hair—with every functionality packed into a sleek, giftable storage box.
5. ARTIS BRUSHES
Artis’ ergonomicallydesigned brushes are dense and lush, constructed of registered and trademarked Cosmefibre filaments, which help distribute makeup evenly, and with a natural finish.
6. CRÈME DE LA MER
Show them you care with Crème de la Mer—gift the luxe cult cream in its largest incarnation, a 500ml jar.
7. PHILOSOPHY CLEANSER
Purity Made Simple was the first product Philosophy launched when the brand debuted in 1996, and the gentle cleanser is still one of the beauty company’s best-sellers—it’s so in demand the face wash comes in a one-litre bottle.
8.PHILIP KINGSLEY HAIR MASK
Philip Kingsley’s Elasticizer pre-shampoo treatment was originally developed for Audrey Hepburn. These days, it’s a favourite of A-list celebrities—and one tub is sold every two minutes. This supersized one-litre bottle reduces the need for refill runs.
